President Obama has received a high-profile endorsement for his re-election bid. Though it's no surprise the country's largest federation of unions, the AFL-CIO, has traditionally endorsed a Democrat for president.
The strength of that support bears watching this year. Collective bargaining has been under attack in several states, draining union resources.
MONTAGNE: But labor leaders say it's also made them more determined than ever to keep Mr. Obama in the White House. NPR's Scott Horsley reports.
SCOTT HORSLEY, BYLINE: Organized labor hasn't always seen eye to eye with President Obama. His push for free trade agreements worries many unions, and he failed to deliver on a bill that would have made it easier to organize new workplaces. Still, Executive Vice President Arlene Holt Baker says when the AFL-CIO reexamined the economic stimulus, the health care law and the rescue of the auto industry, there was no choice but to endorse the president.
ARLENE HOLT BAKER: He understands our issues, and we know that there is a place at the table for working people with President Obama, whereas there's no doubt in our minds that there would not be a place at that table with a Republican administration.
HORSLEY: Indeed, Republican Mitt Romney has been openly hostile to organized labor. Romney regularly rails against what he calls union stooges.
HORSLEY: That kind of Republican rhetoric has turned unions' sometimes uneasy embrace of Mr. Obama into a solid bear hug. Here's Mario Ciardelli of Electrician's Local 683 in Columbus, Ohio.
MARIO CIARDELLI: I think our members realize that the other side's not an option.
HORSLEY: I first met Ciardelli last September when he came to see the president in Columbus. I asked him at the time how enthusiastic his members were about working for Mr. Obama's reelection.
CIARDELLI: That's a good question. I know that a lot of them are frustrated because of being out of work, you know.
HORSLEY: But since then, Ciardelli says, his members have rallied to the president's cause. The economy has gotten a bit better, and in November, Ohio voters overturned a law that would have severely restricted collective bargaining rights for public employees. That political campaign helped to energize union members. Holt Baker of the AFL-CIO says the same thing happened in Wisconsin, where the Republican governor, who pushed a similar measure, now faces a possible recall election.
BAKER: You don't get a million signatories for a recall if you don't have energy out there. And they have lit a fire under the American people, and particularly our members and our broader community partners.
HORSLEY: To be sure, unions have taken a beating in the tough economy. The union representing state and government workers lost 50,000 members as a result of widespread layoffs. But the union has already managed to spend one-and-a-half-million dollars on political ads targeting Republican presidential hopefuls, and Secretary Treasurer Lee Saunders says his members as are mobilized for the November race as they've been in a long, long time.
LEE SAUNDERS: We'll be knocking on doors, not only of union members, but our neighbors and our friends in our communities where we live. We're going to be making phone calls across the country. We're going to be putting resources into this fight.
HORSLEY: The Service Employees Union, which broke from the AFL-CIO, has also endorsed Mr. Obama. Many of that union's 2.1 million members are Latino, and they're putting a special focus on signing up voters in the swing states of Colorado, Nevada and Florida. Scott Horsley, NPR News, Washington.

Science Cafés are live—and lively—events that take place in casual settings such as pubs and coffeehouses, are open to everyone, and feature an engaging conversation with a scientist about a particular topic.
The Science Café format has spread across the globe, adapting to different cultures and audiences. Whether it's in a bar in Somerville, MA, an Indian restaurant in New Rochelle, NY, or a coffeehouse in San Francisco, CA, each café:
- Encourages conversation, debate, interaction, and dialogue between scientists and the public.
Successful Science Cafés create a comfortable atmosphere where everyone joins in. They are not long lectures with a passive audience listening to an expert.
- Reaches out to all audiences.
Science Cafés welcome people who may or may not typically get involved with scientific discussions. They are not exclusive club meetings for scientists and science majors.
Is there a single organization that oversees Science Cafés?
Science Cafés represent a grassroots movement. They exist all over the world and can vary from place to place. Many Science Cafés in the United States draw inspiration from Café Scientifique, a network based in the United Kingdom. Even the names of Science Safés vary, including Science on Tap, Science Pub, Ask a Scientist, and Café Sci.
Who can start a Science Café?
Anyone can organize a Science Café—you don't have to be a scientist! All you need is a passion for science and a willingness to reach out and talk with people.
Who runs the ScienceCafes.org website?
ScienceCafes.org is produced by NOVA scienceNOW, in association with Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Society. Created with the help and input of many Science Café organizers, it is intended as a community resource to support and encourage the growth of Science Cafés.
In 2006, sciencecafes.org was born! NOVA scienceNOW and Sigma Xi brought together 40 Science Café organizers from all over the United States who shared their insights, challenges, and vision. Everyone agreed that a unified U.S. website would help the movement grow.
NOVA scienceNOW and Sigma Xi organized a second Science Café conference at WGBH Boston in 2008 for 60 Science Café and Café Scientifique organizers. After this conference, an online network was developed to help café organizers share ideas, tips, and advice.
The Science Café movement has continued to grow. In 2011, NOVA scienceNOW and the Science Festival Alliance hosted the International Public Science Events Conference in Washington, DC. This two-day conference attracted more than 200 international and domestic science outreach practitioners.

liner notes immediately make clear the terms of reference for this latest CD
from the Guild Golden Age of Light Music series: it states that 'this
collection does not have a special theme or concept.' It is quite simply an attempt to collect a
'varied mixture' of pieces featuring a diverse range of light music
composers. Interestingly, David Ades
states that most of these numbers had been considered for previous releases,
but never quite found their way onto any discs. However, he is quite clear that
this was usually because the programmes were already 'full' rather than any
lack of interest in this music.
the quality of this disc is immediately apparent from the first few bars of the
opening number 'Cab Rank' by the Dutch composer Dolf van der Linden. It is a
classic example of light music describing a cityscape – in this case, rows of
taxis somewhere in the West End. The music comes complete with car horns. Henry Mancini is an all time favourite of
light music aficionados – best known for 'Moon River'; however, the theme tune
to the TV series Mr. Lucky hits all the
right notes with its moody, romantic sound. Little need be said about Duke Ellington's
lugubrious 'Caravan' save that is a piece that nods towards Delius (in spite of
the rather Eastern sound)
is good to hear that great harmonica player Tommy Reilly in a fine performance
of the 'Down Under' theme from the film The
Sundowners. I have always felt that
this instrument is undervalued (RVW and Arnold are exceptions) in the palette
of composers' instrumental colour. David
Rose, forever associated with 'The Stripper,' presents the delicious 'Gloria's Theme'
from the Liz Taylor movie Butterfield B.
The score was by Kaper and David. Kurt Weill is one of the great 'crossover' composers
– writing 'showtime' music as well as symphonies and operas. The 'Bilbao Song'
is one of his most delightful numbers which was part of the musical comedy Happy End (1929) co-written with Bertolt
action moves back to Britain with the next couple of numbers. London-born Trevor Duncan presents a quirky
little piece call 'Tongue in Cheek', which seems all wrong but is actually all right!
Peter Hope, who is still very active writing music is represented with one of
his earlier pieces called 'Spring Collection'.
To me this evocative piece suggests a wide variety of images but is it
spring in the countryside? Or perhaps a mannequin parade with the 'new year's'
fashion? Who knows, but it is a perfect piece of 'light music.' It was
originally written as 'library music' for use in newsreels or documentaries.
am not sure what part of the world Lester B. Hart comes from, but his 'Scurry
for Strings' epitomises the genre: I loved every bar of this. Murray Newman's 'Spinette'
is a little bit of 'fairy tale' music that sounds like a music-box on holiday!
I understand the title is the plural of 'spinet'! The 'Cool Caballero' by Bernie Wayne is fun -
definitely a Spanish knight having a night on the town. Ron Goodwin is well known as a composer of
film music – especially Where Eagles Dare
and 266 Squadron. However, his little
tune 'Pleasure Island' has a calypso beat. It is certainly not the Isle of Wight
he is evoking.
Hartley was a Scottish-born conductor, pianist, and composer. His masterpiece
is the waltz 'Rouge et Noir'. Apparently,
he occasionally wrote music under the pseudonym Iris Taylor. 'Alma Mia' is not the greatest piece on this CD, but
it is nice to have this piece recorded. 'Alma Mia', by the way means 'My Soul.'
always associate Laurie Johnson with The
Avengers – the debonair Mr. Steed and the gorgeous Mrs Peel. However, from
the nineteen-sixties Johnson has been a major contributor to TV and film music.
The present piece, 'I aim at the Stars' is a romantic little number – however I
am not sure if the 'sound effect' is a rocket taking off or a hoover starting
Stott who metamorphosed into Angela Morley has contributed a jaunty piece
called 'Dear Old Pals'. Classic light
music sound is the order of the day in Cyril Waters 'Leaps and Bounds'. The mood changes slightly with Juan Rosa's 'Tango of the Flowers.'
We are back in a familiar part of London with Wilfred Burns' offering, 'Peacock
in Piccadilly'. I think is more about vanity than the bird – perhaps it is an English
take on Frederic Curzon's 'Boulevardier'?
Geller takes us for a spun down the Autobahns with his fast moving 'Continental
Highways'. Horsepower is the order of
the day (complete with 'neighs') in Tom Wyler's 'Galop on String's. Morton Gould's 'Guaracha' is the third movement
of his Latin-American Symphonette (1922). This present tune is based on a Cuban
Dance and is a finely-gauged piece that balances interest with subtlety. Gould
is a composer who is at home in a wide variety of classical and popular musical
genres. He has even incorporated 'rap' into one of his compositions!
Yorke's 'Brandy Snaps' on the other hand is fairly and squarely in the British
light music tradition, bouncy, romantic and a little wistful. 'Chicken Noodle'
by Peter Dennis's is a 'novelty' song –nothing too profound, however, there is
some lovely string writing.
Back on
the continent with Roger Roger and his 'Route Nationale'. This is scampering
music with a lovely romantic counter melody. Certainly, it suggests motoring
down to Cannes in the immaculate open-top 1950 Citroën Roadster (or is it a battered
two-tone 2CV?) The final number is the dramatic 'On Stage' by Billy Mack who
was the Musical Director of the De La Warr Pavilion at Bexhill-on-Sea. This
piece has all the excitement of a night at the London Palladium.
another excellent CD from Guild. The liner notes by David Ades are comprehensive
and give much information about the composers and orchestras that is not
readily available. As always, the restoration of these tunes by Alan Bunting is
the best.
When I
read the introduction to this CD, I was a little concerned that we may have
been scraping the bottom of the barrel. How wrong, wrong, wrong, could I have

What you need
Icecream Soda Glass
Basic Candle Making Supplies
Making whipped wax for decorative candles is rather simple when you know how and it can turn a candle into something spectacular.
When making your whipping wax add a little extra Stearine.
I have also added a little corn flour for a whiter look. But you need to be careful as sometimes it lumps.
Allow the melted wax to skim over and form a top layer crust, then using your egg whisk, beat up the wax to form a frothy mix.
Spoon it onto your candle and allow it to set.

Roasted Butternut Baked Penne.
There are two important things I must say…
…that stem from my viewing of the CMA's.
Yes. I'm educated.
Most importantly, I would like to figure out how to transport Carrie Underwood's legs onto my body. Like… yesterday. While we're at it I'll take her entire wardrobe too.
By the way, I know the above looks disgusting. Get over it for now. Seriously.
So… second, I'd like to say hello to my secret boyfriend Blake Shelton. He's my boyfriend and he knows it. Seriously Blake… stoppppp denying it.
My only saving grace is that I'm equally in love with Miranda Lambert. Can they just adopt me? And that's saying a lot coming from someone who has relentlessly tortured her husband for his fierce dedication to country music. What is wronnnng with me?! Ugh.
Maybe someone [with a strong bass voice, for sure] can just sing me to sleep in a sexy, low country twang? That would work too. [And no Mr. How Sweet, I'm not talking about any of that 'old bosephus' crap or whoever you try to tell me about every single day that makes my ears bleed. Stop.]
But. Want to talk about pasta?
I gotta come clean and tell you that this is totally a cheaters meal. After I made that butternut squash lasagna, so many of you suggested just making a pasta version, minus all the lasagna junk. Uh, why didn't I think of that? I swear… I can never come up with anything creatively simple. This is easier to throw together and tastes equally as amazing. It's pretty much the exact same thing, just mashed to high heavens and piled on top of penne in a pie plate.
Because someone needs to do dishes.
And someone is lazy.
Too lazy to turn on the dishwasher.
I wish I was joking.
And for those of you who like to get fah-reaky with bacon? At the last minute I crumbled some on top and all I have to say is OHMYGOSHITWASTHEBESTTHINGEVER. !!!!! Get this in your life, stat.
Roasted Butternut Baked Penne
- 1 pound butternut squash, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 small shallot, chopped
- 1 tablespoons flour
- 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/2 pound whole wheat penne
- 1/4 cup freshly grated mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- sage leaves
- crumbed bacon, if desired
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel and chop squash, then lay on a baking sheet. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Roast for 20 minutes, flip once, then roast for 20 minutes more. Remove from oven and add squash to a bowl, then mash with a potato masher or fork.
- Prepare water for pasta and cook according to directions.
- While pasta is cooking, heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add butter and shallots. Whisk continuously until the butter browns and small brown bits appear in the pan. Immediately whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add milk, mascarpone and mashed squash, then mix until until combined. I chose to keep my "sauce" in a thicker state (see the second picture), but if you'd like it thinned out a bit more, add additional milk. At this point, taste and see if you'd like any additional salt or spices – this will most likely depend on how seasoned your squash was. I added another small pinch of salt.
- Add pasta to an 8 or 9-inch baking dish. Pour sauce over top, then use a spoon to fold the sauce into the penne, coating it completely. Top with shredded cheeses and fresh sage leaves. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until cheese is golden and bubbly. Garnish with crumbled bacon if desired.
- Note: this is a very "thick" pasta, and it is not swimming in sauce. If you would prefer it to be "saucy," I'd advise adding more milk to the sauce while cooking. It is great reheated, and adding 1-2 tablespoons of milk when reheating helps it come together nicely.

This tastes 80 cazillion times better than it looks. I swear.

Pistis Sophia, by G.R.S. Mead, [1921], at sacred-texts.com
The emanations of Sell-willed cry aloud to him for help.And the First Mystery continued again in the discourse and said: "It came to pass then, before I had led forth Pistis Sophia out of the chaos, because it was not yet commanded me through my Father, the First Mystery which looketh within,--at that time then, after the emanations of Self-willed had perceived that my light-stream had taken from them the light-powers which they had taken from Pistis Sophia, and had poured them into Pistis Sophia, and when they again had seen Pistis Sophia, that she shone as she had done from the beginning, that they were enraged against Pistis Sophia and cried out again to their Self-willed, that he should come and help them, so that they might take away the powers in Pistis Sophia anew.
He sendeth forth another more violent power like unto a flying arrow."And Self-willed sent out of the height, out of the thirteenth æon, and sent another great light-power. It came down into the chaos |136. as a flying arrow, that he might help his emanations, so that they might take away the lights from Pistis Sophia anew. And when that light-power had come down, the emanations of Self-willed which were in the chaos and oppressed Pistis Sophia, took great courage and again pursued Pistis Sophia with great terror and great alarm. And some of the emanations of Self-willed oppressed her. One of them changed itself into
The fashioning of the serpent-, basilisk- and dragon-powers.the form of a great serpent; another again changed itself also into the form of a seven-headed basilisk; another again changed itself into the form of a dragon. And moreover the first power of Self-willed, the lion-faced, and all his other very numerous emanations, they came together and oppressed Pistis Sophia and led her again into the lower regions of the chaos and alarmed her again exceedingly.
The demon-power of Adamas dasheth Sophia down."It came to pass then that there looked down out of the twelve æons, Adamas, the Tyrant, who also was wroth with Pistis Sophia, because she desired to go to the Light of lights, which was above them all; therefore was he wroth with her. It came to pass then, when Adamas, the Tyrant, had looked down out of the twelve æons, that he saw the emanations of Self-willed oppressing Pistis Sophia, until they should take from her all her lights. It came to pass then, when the power of Adamas had come down into the chaos unto all the emanations of Self-willed,--it came to pass then, when that demon came down into the chaos, that it dashed down Pistis Sophia. And the lion-faced power and the serpent-form and the basilisk-form and the dragon-form and all the other very numerous emanations of Self-willed surrounded Pistis Sophia all together, desiring to take from her anew her powers in her, and they oppressed Pistis Sophia exceedingly and threatened her. It came to pass then, when they oppressed her and alarmed her exceedingly, that she cried again to the Light and sang praises, saying:
"'1. O Light, it is thou who hast helped me; let thy light come over me.
Sophia again crieth to the Light."'2. For thou art my protector, and I come hence unto thee, O Light, having faith in thee, O Light.
"'3. For thou art my saviour from the emanations of Self-willed and of Adamas, the Tyrant, and thou shalt save me from all his violent threats.'
Gabriēl and Michaēl and the light-stream again go to her aid."And when Pistis Sophia had said this, then at the commandment |138. of my Father, the First Mystery which looketh within, I sent again Gabriēl and Michaēl and the great light-stream, that they should help Pistis Sophia. And I gave commandment unto Gabriēl and Michaēl to bear Pistis Sophia in their hands, so that her feet should not touch the darkness below; and I gave them commandment moreover to guide her in the regions of the chaos, out of which she was to be led.
"It came to pass then, when the angels had come down into the chaos, they and the light-stream, and moreover [when] all the emanations of Self-willed and the emanations of Adamas had seen the light-stream, how it shone very exceedingly and there was no measure for the light about it, that they became terror-stricken and quitted Pistis Sophia. And the great light-stream surrounded Pistis Sophia on all sides of her, on her left and on her right and on all her sides, and it became a light-wreath round her head.
"It came to pass then, when the light-stream had surrounded Pistis Sophia, that she took great courage, and it ceased not to surround her on all her sides; and she was no longer in fear of the emanations of Self-willed which are in the
chaos, nor was she any more in fear of the other new power of Self-willed which he had cast down into the chaos |139. as a flying arrow, nor did she any more tremble at the demon power of Adamas which had come out of the æons.
The transfiguration of Sophia."And moreover by commandment of myself, the First Mystery which looketh without, the light-stream which surrounded Pistis Sophia on all her sides, shone most exceedingly, and Pistis Sophia abode in the midst of the light, a great light being on her left and on her right, and on all her sides, forming a wreath round her head. And all the emanations of Self-willed [could] not change their face again, nor could they bear the shock of the great light of the stream, which was a wreath round her head. And all the emanations of Self-willed,--many of them fell at her right, because she shone most exceedingly, and many others fell at her left, and were not able at all to draw nigh unto Pistis Sophia because of the great light; but they fell all one on another, or they all came near one another, and they could not inflict any ill on Pistis Sophia, because she had trusted in the Light.
Jesus, the First Mystery looking without, causeth Sophia to triumph."And at the commandment of my Father, the First Mystery which looketh within, I myself went down into the chaos, shining most exceedingly, and approached the lion-faced power, which shone exceedingly, and took its whole light in it and held fast all the emanations of Self-willed, so that from now on they went not into their region, that is the thirteenth æon. And I took away the power of all the emanations of Self-willed, and they all fell down in the chaos powerless. And I led forth Pistis Sophia, she
being on the right of Gabriēl and Michaēl. And the great light-stream entered again into her. And Pistis Sophia beheld with her eyes her foes, that I had taken their light-power from them. And I led Pistis Sophia forth from the chaos, she treading under foot the serpent-faced emanation of Self-willed, and moreover treading under foot the seven-faced-basilisk emanation, and treading under foot the lion- and dragon-faced power. I made Pistis Sophia continue to stand upon the seven-headed-basilisk emanation of Self-willed; and it was more mighty than them all in its evil doings. And I, the First Mystery, stood by it and took all the powers in it, and made to perish its whole matter, so that no seed should arise from it from now on."|141.

In the historically most famous ancestral house of the matrilineal Amis tribe in Taiwan, the carved pillars tell legends, such as the great flood, the glowing girl, the descending shaman sent by the Mother Sun, and the father-killing headhunting event. After a strong typhoon toppled the house 40 years ago, the pillars were moved to the Institute of Ethnology Museum. Recently young villagers, with assistance from female shamans, pushed the descendants and village representatives to communicate with ancestors in the pillars. They eventually brought the ancestral souls(rather than the pillars)back and began reconstructing the house. In an environment highly influenced by western religions, national land policy, and local politics, the dream of the young people for cultural revitalization and to bring back not only the ancestral souls but also the soul of the village encountered many frustrations. This documentary interweaves reality and legends as well as the seen and the unseen as it records this unique case of repatriation. (85 minutes)

McLEAN, AMELIA ANNE (Paget), linguist and author; b. 15 July 1867 at Fort Simpson (N.W.T.), daughter of William James McLean and Helen Hunter Murray; m. 1899 Frederick Henry Paget, and they had a daughter; d. 10 July 1922 in Ottawa.
Amelia McLean's family had roots steeped in fur trade history. Her mother was the daughter of Alexander Hunter Murray*, a chief trader with the Hudson's Bay Company. It was at Fort Simpson that Helen met and married W. J. McLean, a native of the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, who had joined the HBC in 1859. Amelia, the eldest of their 12 children, spent her earliest years at Fort Liard (N.W.T.). In 1873 her father was transferred to Fort Qu'Appelle (Sask.), where his family joined him the following year.
The McLeans arrived at a time of critical change for the aboriginal people of the district because of the collapse of the buffalo economy, treaties, and settlement on reserves. Treaty No.4, which Helen McLean signed as a witness, was made at Fort Qu'Appelle in September 1874. Amelia and her siblings became well acquainted with the Plains Cree and the Saulteaux, forming friendships and attending special ceremonies. Amelia was particularly gifted at languages – she would, for example, translate popular songs into Cree and Saulteaux. During some of the family's years at Fort Qu'Appelle, she attended St John's College Ladies' School in Winnipeg.
Posted in 1883 to Fort Ellice and then Île-à-la-Crosse, in 1884 W. J. McLean was assigned to Fort Pitt on the Saskatchewan River, in the territory of the Woods Cree. Amelia and the family joined him later that year, their arrival coinciding with the move of Plains Cree chief Big Bear [Mistahimaskwa*] and his followers into the district. He had only agreed to take treaty in 1882, following years of meagre subsistence for his people, and the winter of 1884–85 was one of great want and discontent. On 3 April 1885 the McLeans and the other residents of Fort Pitt learned that members of Big Bear's band had killed nine men at Frog Lake (Alta); a week before, an encounter at Duck Lake between the North-West Mounted Police and the Métis had left 15 dead.
Early in April non-aboriginal people from surrounding settlements sought refuge in Fort Pitt, which housed a NWMP detachment under the command of Francis Jeffrey Dickens*. The three eldest McLean girls, and one of their brothers, took turns at sentry duty. (An illustration in the Montreal Daily Star on 23 May would bear the caption "Noble women on the defensive: the Misses McLean show great courage, each one rifle in hand, stands at a loophole.") On 13 April the fort was surrounded by Big Bear and about 250 men; the next day W. J. McLean was requested to meet them. Consultation stopped when the Cree believed they were being attacked as three scouts tried to gallop through for the safety of the fort. One was killed; another, wounded, was brought into the fort while Amelia and others provided covering fire; the third escaped but was later taken by the Cree. Three Cree were also killed. Concerned about their father, Amelia and her sister Katherine (Kitty) left the fort and walked into the Cree camp unescorted. According to family accounts, some of the Cree, astonished at the girls' nerve, asked if they were not scared. The 17-year-old Amelia replied, in perfect Cree: "Why should we be afraid of you. We have lived together as brothers and sisters for many years. We speak the same language. Why should we be afraid of you?" Under her father's leadership, the remaining residents of Fort Pitt – the police had escaped – agreed to evacuate it under the custody of Big Bear. The group travelled to Frog Lake and then to Frenchman Butte, where there was a confrontation with the pursuing field force of Thomas Bland Strange. The camp fled, only to face another encounter, with NWMP scouts under Samuel Benfield Steele*. In mid June the McLeans were allowed to leave and on the 24th they arrived back at Fort Pitt.
During their months with the Cree, rumours had circulated that the older McLean girls were being mistreated, that they had been made the "slaves of the lesser chiefs" and had suffered the "final outrage." None of these stories was true, though there had been threatening behaviour from individuals as camp discipline deteriorated. Newspapers of the day commented at length on the girls, who were described as "plucky enough for life guardsmen," and Amelia was singled out for shouldering her Winchester at Fort Pitt. According to one account, she "would not have believed the endurance they all manifested possible, but now that the captivity is over she looks back at most of it with enjoyment."
In the American west, women like the McLean sisters might have enjoyed greater notoriety, perhaps in the style of Annie Oakley. Amelia, however, returned to a quiet life at Lower Fort Garry, Man., where her father was in charge from 1886 to 1893. During these years, with linguistic skills that were highly valued, she did some work for the federal Department of Indian Affairs. Its chief accountant and superintendent of Indian education, Duncan Campbell Scott*, who was also a published poet, later wrote that "she was gifted with a language-sense which made possible a knowledge of the subtlest peculiarities of two languages, the Cree and Ojibwa, both highly expressive, but the last eminently flexible and poetic." In 1899 she married Frederick Paget and moved to Ottawa. A clerk in Scott's offices, Paget was also useful to his department for his advice on western Indians (he had been a chief clerk at the Indian office in Regina and an assistant to the Indian commissioner). In this regard Amelia would have been an asset as well.
In 1906, in response to a special request from Governor General Lord Grey*, she received a commission from the department to travel among the Plains Indians and interview elders concerning their history, customs, and folklore. She visited the File Hills, Moose Mountain, Muscowpetung, and Crooked Lake agencies in Saskatchewan in the fall of 1906, and met extensively with friends from her Qu'Appelle years. She required neither a driver nor, except when meeting with the Assiniboin, an interpreter, and she camped out unless the weather was poor. Her method was to gather together several elders: when one began telling his or her narrative, the others would corroborate, make corrections, and add detail. She was aware that beliefs limited the telling of fictitious stories to the winter – only actual happenings were recited in the long summer evenings – so she intended more trips, but it is unclear whether any took place. Her small commission was an unusual expenditure for the normally parsimonious government, but, as Scott would explain in his introduction to the resulting book, The people of the plains (Toronto, 1909), the project was motivated by a belief that ancient customs and manners were disappearing. He may also have found Amelia's insights useful to his poetry. She knew a great deal about the places and some of the individuals he wrote about, such as hunter/runner Akoose of the Crooked Lake agency and his father Qui-witch.
Amelia Paget's People of the plains is a remarkable and unconventional book. It contains none of the pejorative, negative descriptions of Indian habits and characteristics typically featured in other publications of the time (and before), including the work of Egerton Ryerson Young*. Paget's focus is the Plains Cree and the Saulteaux. She stresses that, before the arrival of immigrants, they led an ideal existence since they were a wealthy people who had all they desired and a nourishing diet, experienced no sickness, and lived in roomy tepees. After describing their modes of travel and how camping places were chosen and tepees constructed, she writes that "such an encampment amid beautiful scenery, astir with prosperous and contented Indians, must have been a most striking illustration of the Indians' own idea of the wonderful love and care bestowed upon them by the Great Spirit." She argues that it is unfair to call them heathens, and provides evidence of their complex religious beliefs. In her detailed descriptions of their ceremonies and dances, she distinguishes between those that were solemn and those intended to cause merriment. The book also contains accounts of the vanished buffalo hunt, warfare, burial customs, poetry, music, legends, and humour.
The way in which Paget undermines dominant stereotypes is most evident in her descriptions of women. Having talked with female elders who had observed "all the triumphs and trials" of their bands, she could maintain that the "popular idea of the poor Indian woman doing all the hard work has too often been overdrawn." The practice of polygamy is presented sympathetically: the wives "called each other 'sister,' and . . . divided their labours equally, and tried in every way to cultivate mutual forbearance."
Paget's descriptions of Cree and Saulteaux life challenged conventional assumptions to such an extent that, in his introduction, Scott found it necessary to explain why the book had a "tone of championship for all Indians" and to account for the "idealistic tendency which places everything in a high and favorable aspect." He suggests that her early experiences, including her months with the Cree in 1885, had caused her to have a glowing view of bygone days and to ignore any "hardship and squalor, starvation, inhumanity and superstition in this aboriginal life." Paget had little say over the final appearance of her book. Scott edited it and corresponded with the publisher about the title, design, and illustrations. Her original title, which was in Cree or Saulteaux, and her design for the cover, drawn by one of her sisters, were both rejected.
The public was not entirely prepared for the point of view expressed in People of the plains, and it received mixed responses. Some appreciated the author's "first-hand information" and tendency to upset "popular superstitions." Others, however, found her account too much of a departure from the deeply embedded stereotypes of the day. The reviewer for the Montreal Standard, for instance, commented that "even when free from contact with the white man they were not exactly the Arcadian shepherds and shepherdesses that Mrs. Paget presents . . . the cruelty, the squalor, the dirt are glossed over. It is too late in the day for any Fenimore Cooper romance of the redskin."
Amelia McLean Paget died on 10 July 1922 in Ottawa following a four-year decline caused by pernicious anaemia. Her funeral took place at her father's home in Winnipeg and she was buried there in St John's cemetery.

NEW YORK — Hello Kitty might not have a mouth but she's got a movie deal.
Warner Bros.' New Line Cinema announced Tuesday that it has acquired film rights to Hello Kitty from the Japanese corporation Sanrio. The 45-year-old iconic feline has never been turned into a movie despite its merchandising ubiquity.
New Line said it will quickly begin work on a script to put a film into production. Sanrio also granted film rights to other characters including Gudetama, My Melody and Little Twin Stars.
Warner Bros. has had success with toy adaptations before, including "The Lego Movie." That film's sequel, however, has underperformed at the box office since opening last month.
Hello Kitty presents potentially steeper challengers, though. She doesn't talk or, for the most part, change facial expressions.

This is the first of two foundation drawing studio courses that introduce students to a basic skill at the core of the creative process. It promotes respect for perceptive seeing and visual thinking, and promotes its practice as a matter of intellectual and psychological inquiry leading to levels of invention commensurate with an individual's developing sense of the world. This first semester affirms the role the human hand has established in effecting the convergence between thought and making and prepares students to consider more technologically mediated approaches as their practice matures. A variety of drawing media and processes will be employed to achieve confident and intelligently articulated visual responses.

I was recently alerted to a remarkably stupid attack (and I use that term advisedly) directed at me from the Council on Foreign Relations on the subject of Iceland.
The C.F.R. people take me to task in a blog post titled " 'Iceland's Post-Crisis Miracle' Revisited" for measuring economic performance in Iceland and the Baltics relative to the pre-crisis peak, which they suggest is some kind of scam. Why not measure relative to the post-crisis trough, under which the Baltics look better?
Oh, boy. Economists have been studying business cycles for something like 90 years, and done comparisons to previous peaks all that time; apparently these guys don't know about any of that. So let's try this slowly.
First of all, we think of a recession as a period in which the economy falls below its potential; the natural way to gauge a recovery is to see how much of the lost ground has been regained.
Better yet, compare two hypothetical countries — call them country I and country L. Both suffer from a severe economic setback, but country I does a better job of responding to the shock, so that output falls only 10 percent in I but 20 percent in L. Then both economies recover. In that recovery, output in L grows more from the trough than output in I — but only because the country did so badly in the first place. Yet the C.F.R. people would have us believe that L, not I, is the success story.
Or do a bit of history. The economy in the United States grew 10.9 percent — yes, 10.9 percent — in 1934. The New Deal triumphant! Or maybe not. Real gross domestic product was still about 20 percent below its 1929 level.
So by comparing output to the previous peak I'm doing the obvious, natural thing; the C.F.R. alternative makes no sense.
Oh, and Ryan Avent, the economics correspondent at The Economist, took on in his own blog post another, earlier C.F.R. argument that the Baltics have grown more since 2000. This is a different kind of confusion: mixing up long-run growth in potential with shortfalls below potential. Iceland was and is a rich country; the Baltics were poor countries playing catch-up, which isn't relevant either way to the crisis story.
One place where I do disagree with Mr. Avent is in his desire to stop talking about Iceland. Yes, it's a small island exporting mainly fish and aluminum. But you take your natural experiments where you find them. (The economist Milton Friedman made his original case for floating exchange rates in part by invoking the example of, believe it or not, Tangier). Iceland was the only European-periphery country that received huge capital inflows, then responded to the crisis not with a grim determination to stay on or pegged to the euro, but by devaluing. In the process it demonstrated that devaluation is a lot easier than "internal devaluation," the attempt to regain competitiveness with a fixed exchange rate, which is actually the main point.
Defining Success Down in the Baltics
I still get comments and mail from people claiming that the experience of Latvia and/or Estonia proves that I'm all wrong, or something. Most of the people saying this don't know anything beyond one or two good numbers they've heard. So, here's what you need to know. Look at the charts on this page on gross domestic product and unemployment.
We're talking about two economies that suffered severe, Depression-level slumps, and have since made up some but not all of the lost ground. You could, by the way, have said exactly the same thing about the United States in 1935.
I mean, obviously it's good that some ground has been regained. But this is the best people can do to demonstrate the wonders of austerity?

CAMP LIBERTY, Iraq, April 22, 2011 — The U.S. military needs to get it right as it transitions out of Iraq, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff told soldiers in Baghdad today.
Navy Adm. Mike Mullen spoke to soldiers and airmen assigned to the 25th Infantry Division and the 1st Infantry Division's 2nd Brigade at U.S. Division Center headquarters here.
About 47,000 U.S. troops remain in Iraq, mostly in an "advise and assist" role. With all American troops due to leave by the end of the year, Mullen called on the service members to make sure "we get everything right in this transition."
What they do will give Iraq a chance to have a better future with a military that is under civilian control, and have a force that is "responsive, capable, able to take care of their own people, their own borders and their own security," the chairman said.
The change in Iraq presaged the sea change in the Middle East, Mullen said, and that "adds that much more criticality toward getting it right in Iraq." The Iraqi government and people now have the main job in establishing a peaceful, stable government, but U.S. troops have a support role to play, he added.
Nations around the region are trying to figure out how to put in place all that is necessary to have a democracy, in an area with little or no democratic tradition, the admiral noted. "And Iraq is at the heart of that," he said. "I'm delighted that most of the challenges here now are political," and not military.
The world is unpredictable, the chairman said, noting that strangely, that will be a constant for the future. For example, he said, he had no idea in January that Japan and Libya would be the countries he would be most concerned about in March.
The tempo of deployments will drop, and troops will soon be home twice as long as they are deployed, he said. But given the unpredictability in the world, no one can afford not to be ready to respond at a moment's notice. "We're going to continue to deploy," he said. "We don't necessarily know where."
The United States is looking for a long-term strategic partnership with Iraq, Mullen said. "The details of what that means — whether there will be trainers here, or what the numbers will be, if any at all – are yet to be worked out," he added.
With the reduction in tempo, soldiers will have more time in garrison, and that will mean a new set of challenges, the admiral said, noting that much of the Army has not spent significant amounts of time at home stations.
"Sergeants first class and below have just been deploying to the fight. Majors and below are just deploying to the fight," he said. "They have no idea what it's like to be in garrison."
Senior officers and noncommissioned officers know what it's like to be in garrison, the admiral said, and they now have the extra responsibility to instruct other service members on what being in garrison is all about, such as how training is accomplished and what the rules of discipline are.
In this era of budgetary constraint, getting the "people" portion of the budget right is most crucial to the long-term health of the force, Mullen said. After almost 10 years of war, he noted, this is the most combat-experienced force in America's history, and it's important for the military to retain that seasoned force.
"If we don't do that, it will be difficult, no matter what our budget is or the stuff we're buying," he said.

By Parisa Hafezi and John Irish
UNITED NATIONS, Sept 24 (Reuters) – The remaining parties to the Iran nuclear deal on Monday agreed to keep working to maintain trade with Tehran despite skepticism this is possible as U.S. sanctions to choke off Iranian oil sales resume in November.
U.S. President Donald Trump decided in May to abandon the pact and to restore economic sanctions on Iran, including those that seek to force the OPEC member's major oil customers to stop buying Iranian crude.
In a statement after a meeting of Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and Iran, the group said they were determined to develop payment mechanisms to continue trade with Iran despite skepticism by many diplomats that this will be possible.
"Mindful of the urgency and the need for tangible results, the participants welcomed practical proposals to maintain and develop payment channels notably the initiative to establish a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to facilitate payments related to Iran's exports, including oil," the group said in a joint statement issued after the statement.
Several European diplomats said the SPV idea was to create a barter system, similar to one used by the Soviet Union during the Cold War, to exchange Iranian oil for European goods without money changing hands.
The idea is to circumvent U.S. sanctions due to be restored in November under which Washington can cut off from the U.S. financial system any bank that facilitates an oil transaction with Iran.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said the decision to set up such a vehicle had already been taken and that technical experts would meet again to flesh out the details.
"In practical terms this will mean that EU member states will set up a legal entity to facilitate legitimate financial transactions with Iran and this will allow European companies to continue to trade with Iran in accordance with European Union law and could be open to other partners in the world," she said.
Many diplomats and analysts, however, are skeptical such a vehicle could ultimately thwart U.S. sanctions given that the United States could amend its sanctions laws to prohibit such barter transactions.
"The key is to keep all possibilities open so that we can signal to the Iranians that the door isn't closing," said a senior French diplomat.
The European Union, has so far failed to devise a workable legal framework to shield its companies from U.S. sanctions that go into effect in November and that, among other things, seek to choke off Iran's oil sales, diplomats said.
Highlighting how difficult it will be for the Europeans to come up with concrete solutions, French state-owned bank Bpifrance on Monday abandoned a plan to set up a financial mechanism to aid French firms trading with Iran.
The crux of the 2015 nuclear deal, negotiated over almost two years by the administration of former U.S. President Barack Obama, was that Iran would restrain its nuclear program in return for the relaxation of sanctions that had crippled its economy.
Trump considered it flawed because it did not include curbs on Iran's ballistic missiles program or its support for proxies in Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and Iraq.
The impending return of U.S. sanctions has contributed to a slide in Iran's currency. The rial has lost about two-thirds of its value this year, hitting a record low against the U.S. dollar this month.
